Let’s face it: there is more bad than good when it comes to a Donald Trump administration. The good, however, is seeing the wacky left, the Marxist professors, the mainstream media and social justice warriors (SJWs) weep like Huma Abedin and contradict themselves like Hillary Clinton for the next four years.
When it comes to Trump, nothing much is really going to change in the next four years. There will still be war, there will still be central economic planning, there will still be a Federal Reserve. So special snowflakes and millennials shouldn’t think that there will be concentration camps set up any time soon.
But don’t tell that to Ned Resnikoff, Senior Editor for ThinkProgress, who thinks that plumbers have suddenly metastasized into Nazis.
Here is what he wrote this week:
“This afternoon, I had a plumber over to my apartment to fix a clogged drain. He was a perfectly nice guy and a consummate professional. But he was also a middle-aged white man with a southern accent who seemed unperturbed by this week’s news. And while I had him in the apartment, I couldn’t stop thinking about whether he had voted for Trump, whether he knew my last name is Jewish, and how that knowledge might change the interaction we were having inside my own home. I have no real reason to believe he was a Trump supporter or an anti-Semite but in my uncertainty I couldn’t shake the sense of potential danger. I was rattled for some time after he left.
“I’m very privileged insofar as this sense of danger is unfamiliar to me. And I know I felt it much less acutely than a lot of other people right now. I’m still a straight, white guy who can phenotypically pass for gentle. Plus my first name is pretty WASP-y.
“But today was a reminder that ambiguous social interactions now feel unsafe and unpredictable in a way that never did before. And even if Trump is gone in four years, I don’t expect to ever reclaim that feeling of security. That’s just one more thing you voted for, if you voted for him.”
Simply put: your plumber, according to Resnikoff, is literally a Nazi, and will sieg heil der fuhrer as soon as he fixes the faucet or drain.
Uh huh. It’s unclear as to what you should file this as: crazy or scary.
One thing is for certain: these types of people need to calm down and just seek refuge in their safe spaces. Again, nothing drastic is going to happen over the next four years. It’s going to be the same thing as we have seen over the last few decades: corruption, theft, war and hypocrisy. Well, perhaps one thing is going to change: the loss of manhood.

Is NED off his medication? Or just off. I vote both. I thought the left did not like stereotyping. Oh, I guess that only applies when someone is talking about them. Wake up leftist – Hillary Rotten Clinton lost the election because the American voter saw how Rotten she truly has become.
